Anyone noticed how loud the thing is during the shave? Audible feedback's great, especially if you use it with something like a Bulldog stainless handle.

2nd shave and very much like the first, a very predictable and smooth shave from this razor.
Switched handles for a something a little heavier to see how it differs or changes the shave as well. I do think maybe the Gillette blade as coming to its last shave but still a nice shaving experience this morning.
I'll try one of the Gillette heads tomorrow, God knows which one as no idea which is which?

Slots is the New head, pins for the blade is the Old clone
The Old needs a slightly steeper angle but gives a nice shave.

I went for the full Scottish experience this morning having not shaved for a good few days
Loaded a Scottish Permasharp - really good close shave although I did manage to get complacent and nick myself - definitely my dault as opposed to the hardware.
SOTD was
Hot shower
MWF
The 'Cyril'
Braveheart
Scottish Permasharp
Alum block
Witchhazel
Good experience - makes me want to vote SNP, listen to the skirl o the pipes and sack York again!

Hi Dan, as it is an expensive razor that I can't afford to replace I had put on the proviso of needing at least 30 posts and 3 months membership to join the pass around.
If a longstanding member would vouch for you I would be happy to waive that requirement or drop me a pm when you meet said minimum.
Regards
The Count

Got this today. I am not very articulate when it comes to reviewing a shave but this was amazing!
Might even say it's my best shave to date. I used a Polsilver Super Iridium blade with EJ Aloe soap. With the grain, across the grain and against the grain. BBS and not a drop of blood or any other issues. Just a damn good shave
Thanks for the opportunity to try this great razor. Looking forward to my next shave already.
